Where does the Chishui River in Guizhou pass?

Most of Chishui River is located in the mountainous area of Guizhou, and its water resources are not polluted. Many famous wines in Guizhou are brewed here. Where Chishui River passes, canyons and forest parks are formed. This geological and karst landscape is also a pearl in Guizhou tourism.

1. Where does Chishui River pass? Chishui River originated in Zhenxiong County, Yunnan Province, and its upstream is called Fish Cave. The water flows eastward to the ladder rock at the junction of Sichuan, Yunnan and Guizhou provinces, and the water volume increases. It crosses the border between Bijie and Jinsha counties in Guizhou Province and xuyong county and Gulin counties in Sichuan Province, enters renhuai city, Xishui County and Chishui City, and joins the Yangtze River in Hejiang County, Sichuan Province. The total length is 444.5 kilometers (524 kilometers), and three-quarters of the basin is in mountainous areas.

Fishing ban

The Ministry of Agriculture of China Government issued a decree on June 0, 20 17, and the Chishui River Basin was closed to fishing 10.

Chishui River is 500 kilometers long, and there must be good wine within a hundred miles. The whole region has produced dozens of famous wines headed by Maotai, accounting for 60% of the national famous wines.

2. Distribution of scenic spots on both sides of Chishui River The Chishui River originates in Yunnan, flows through Guizhou, and finally joins the Yangtze River in Hejiang, Sichuan, with a total length of more than 400 kilometers.

Chishui River is the only free-flowing river in the Yangtze River basin without a dam.

Why does Chishui River turn crimson every Dragon Boat Festival?

As soon as Chongyang crossed the river, it became clear, because when the rainy season came, the sediment on both sides was washed away and flowed into the river (the soil on both sides of Chishui River was reddish brown), so the river was named Chishui River. Ancient salt merchants sailed from Sichuan to all parts of Guizhou, with a journey of more than 700 kilometers. In the southwest mountainous area where land transportation is underdeveloped, Chishui River has become a real golden waterway. Although Chishui River has a long-standing reputation as a golden waterway in Sichuan and Guizhou, and there are famous towns such as Bijie, Jinsha, Gu Lin, Maotai, Xishui and Hejiang along the coast, China, which is full of rivers, is no less famous than other rivers in China.

River discoloration time

Every year from the Dragon Boat Festival to the Double Ninth Festival, when the rainy season comes, a lot of purple soil is washed into the water, and the river turns red.

In the second year, between the Double Ninth Festival and the Dragon Boat Festival, the rainfall plummeted and the river became clear and transparent.
